We went to elementary school together, she was a sweet beautiful person. My deepest sympathy for her family, as I'm caring for my Mom who has dementia.

Marilyn and I shared a special bond as we spent time together. She adored her boys and loved her job. When she was working, I never had better clothes. We loved movies and often met to eat or just at one another's home to talk. I helped her move to assisted living where we had many laughs and tears. She begged me to not forget her and I never shall. The last time I visited her was around Christmas and am so glad she is finally "home". May you have eternal rest and may we meet again.
